Win BIG $$$ at Darts

Wednesday, January 26th, 2011 – running time 12:45

Suck at darts? you can still make BANK with this simple scam.

Here's the scam: Pin a $20 to the dartboard, and offer it to whomever can hit it 3 times following your simple rules. The first toss must be from the line. The second toss must be from one step in front of the line. The third toss must be from one step behind the line. Charge a buck a turn. Watch the Washingtons roll in as your trusting dupes fail over and over at this deceptively hard challenge. Eventually, odds are that someone will win the twenty, but we're betting that you'll be well in the black by then.
